I saw Pillow Talk for the first time last night, and it was just wonderful. Everyone says Northampton is best in the summer, with excessive downtown loitering by people, babies and puppies.

Anna isn't sleeping much this week, and I'm afraid finals week will be just as bad. She's secured an internship with the renewable energy center at umass doing cogeneration (reusing biproducts from the production of energy to fuel part of the process) and stuff. Sounds like a good plan.

Marshall, his special friend McKenna, Morgan, Kyle Lamb, Connor Reidy, and God knows who else are going on a big camping trip in late May, which should be a crazy good time. Just a weekend. With the anniversary of Dick's death creeping up, I want a little bright possibility on the horizon. I see quite a few. Things are looking up.

April 25, 2004 by Sadie in Sadie & Greg

It's nice to know that mom always has room for another kid in her heart, but I think she'll have to work it out with her own mom. Anyway, that weekend is going to be absolute madness. my roomate Lindsey, her g.f. Rachael, Alexis, and Kelly, among many others, are graduating. Lindsey hired Anna's quartet to play for her and Rachael's (large) families at a brunch at our apartment, which I hope won't be too insane. Then Anna is off to Trinidad with the college orchestra for a week. All four (Linds, Rachael, Anna and I) are living together this summer, so I'd love to get anyone's space-saving tips as we squeeze two more people into a one bedroom. Mom, will you send those great decorating books?

I know that you've all been waiting in anticipation for my birthday list, and I've decided to give you a month to prepare for the Big Day. I would like, other than your undying love and attention, a Sunday subscription to the New York Times, magazing subscriptions (as examples: Budget Living, GQ), frames, a black stamp pad, cds (Donovan, Elton John, The Rolling Stones -Hot Rocks, Jurrasic 5, and other burned favorites), and the third season of 24. I am also partial to things that have days of the week on them (K Mart dishtowels, etc.), the Wall Mart John Deer dish line, and black and white photos of the family.

Does anyone know what Jenny wants? And Yayoe?

I have a friend at school who's mom isn't coming to her graduation because she came out. My thoughts: don't they have tv in Cincinnati? The gays are funny, well-dressed, always helpful- why wouldn't you want one in the family? I am at a total loss.



Anna loved Robbie's library antics

April 19, 2004 by Sadie in Sadie & Greg

Anna loved Robbie's library antics. She just can't imagine a community so in love with their public library. You'll have to tell us more about it.

I woke up this morning to the radio talk show host, also local video clerk and city councellor, raving up a storm about how some justices of the peace aren't giving marriage licenses to gay couples who want to get married. Anywhere else I'd freeze up, not knowing what would come next, but by God, Bill was ranting for me! He said he'd go marry people himself. I thought, Northampton sure looks nice in the springtime. And it does.

NPR had an interesting story on No Child Left Behind this morning. listen to it when it comes your way.

I have a borrowed sewing machine in front of me and am preparing to begin my first ever quilting project, made from discontinued furniture scraps from Essentials. I hope the end result will feel like an expensive apolstered embrace.

Here is a poem right back at Sam, if I remember Shel correctly:
I will not play a tug of war
I'd rather play a hug o war
Where everyone hugs instead of tugs
Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rugs
Where everyone kisses and everyone grins
And everyone cuddles and everyone wins

I'm feeling much better now. :)

while we didn't get around to reinacting the twelve stations of the cross, sam and i had a great time planning for our big production the next time i'm in town. i also had isa time, which is performative in its own right, down to the glass slippers and pretty pink princess boa. dez has an impeccable sense of physical humor, as so boldly displayed in his little vaudville act on friday. jordan is quite the talker these days too, and emma, with her warmest temperment, is such a blessing. thank you, my most amazing and loving family, for making spectacular babies for me to miss when i'm gone. anna thanks all of you for being so sweet to her, even if she won't transfer to the UofO next week. i miss you already.

so i'm back safe and sound, although i have to go back to hartford tonight to retreive my wallet, which slipped out of my pocket or bag during the flight. another hour and a half in the car won't kill me, and the rest of the travelling was smooth sailing. My roommate Lindsey may have a tropical viral infection, but her fever is down and she wasn't dead when i last checked, so she should pull through.
